A modern, detached, 4 bedroom family residence offering generously proportioned accommodation, tucked-away at the end of a private drive and set within secluded gardens overlooking farmland to the rear.

The property, just one of three, is a superb detached house built in the 1990s to a spacious, well-planned design. No. 3 is tucked-away at the end of a private drive (owned by No. 3) boasting ample off-road parking and a detached double garage. Due to its end of no-through road position, the property has far reaching views over farmland, immediately behind and enjoys a sunny, south-facing rear garden.

The accommodation comprises, a spacious and welcoming reception hall with stairs to the first floor accommodation, solid wood flooring and a cloakroom w.c. just off. There are two reception rooms and a study. These include a dual aspect sitting room with feature fireplace and a dining room. Both these rooms have doors into the large conservatory extension, which in turn enjoys panoramic views over farmland immediately beyond. The kitchen / breakfast room is fitted with attractive cabinetry, ample fitted working surfaces with an inset one and a half sink unit with mixer tap and drainer, four-ring ceramic hob, oven, extractor and integrated fridge freezer and dishwasher. Adjacent is a utility room with matching cabinetry, space for the usual white goods, door to outside and a recently replaced wall-mounted central heating boiler.

Upstairs off the split-level, galleried landing are four bedrooms and a family bathroom. The master bedroom boasts fitted wardrobe cupboards and an ensuite shower room.

Outside, a gravelled driveway provides ample parking and leads to the detached double garage with an up-and-over door, power and light connected. Gated access on both sides of the property, give access to the rear garden, which is laid mainly to lawn with flower and shrub borders and all is enclosed by walling, enjoying excellent levels of privacy.
